Diverse integrin adhesion stoichiometries caused by varied actomyosin activity [PDF]
Open Biology, 2017 Cells in an organism are subjected to numerous sources of external and internal forces, and are able to sense and respond to these forces. Integrin-mediated adhesion links the extracellular matrix outside cells to the cytoskeleton inside, and ...

Myosin XVI in the Nervous System
Cells, 2020 The myosin family is a large inventory of actin-associated motor proteins that participate in a diverse array of cellular functions. Several myosin classes are expressed in neural cells and play important roles in neural functioning.

Alternative Exon 9-Encoded Relay Domains Affect More than One Communication Pathway in the Drosophila Myosin Head [PDF]
, 2009 We investigated the biochemical and biophysical properties of one of the four alternative regions within the Drosophila myosin catalytic domain: the relay domain encoded by exon 9.

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2014 The folding and assembly of myosin motor proteins is essential for most movement processes at the cellular, but also at the organism level. Importantly, myosins, which represent a very diverse family of proteins, require the activity of general and specialized folding factors to develop their full motor function.

Myosin VI Lever Arm Rotation: Fixed or Variable? [PDF]
, 2010 Two recent articles addressed the power-stroke of myosin VI molecules during stepping. Although both groups measured the angles of fluorescent probes attached on the myosin VI molecule lever arm using polarized fluorescence techniques, they differ about ...

A kinetic model describing the processivity of Myosin-V [PDF]
, 2005 The precise details of how myosin-V coordinates the biochemical reactions and mechanical motions of its two head elements to engineer effective processive molecular motion along actin filaments remain unresolved.

Gamma-radiation induced agglomeration of chicken muscle myosin and actine [PDF]
Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2004 Radiolytic behaviour of themajor vertebrate muscle proteins: fibrillarmyosin (molar mass, Mm = 520,000 g/mol) and filament forming actin (Mm = 42,050 g/mol) was studied using a SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and quantified by high precision laser-
